Monday Is Here - What are YOU eatting???

Good morning Maysters!!! It's a new week and another chance to eat healthy!! I had a "bad" weekend, not eatting-wise but just all around bad. My sister PURPOSLY tried to sabatoge my birthday party last night by bringing pie made with sugar. She begged to make me a sugar free dessert, so we settled on sf pumpkin pie (I don't like cake). I was skeptical from the get go and sure enough.... I told my dh my worry and he asked her if there was sugar in the pies and she said YUP, of course!! ggggggggrrrrrr, so I just had the tinest of pieces and didn't get sick. Some jealous ppl can be soooo freakin' MEAN!!!!! Anyway, I'm a size 4 and she's about a size 28 so guess who gets the last laugh. So, here's the plan for today: B - oatmeal S - hot chocolate with protein L - UGH, I guess tuna fish S - cheesecake (homemade w/ splenda) D - don't know yet... possible homemade pizza S - sun crisps (If I've been good all day, otherwise it's fresh veggies Hope you all have a good Monday! laurie

Not just given the fact that I dump, if someone made sugared something for me - not a bite would have crossed my lips. Grrrrrr, for sure. I sometimes don't get people. Pre-B: Protein shake B: Piece of quiche, 2 pieces American cheese Pre-L: Jr. protein shake (on way to doctors) L: Lasagna slop (noodless lasagna) S: Protein shake D: More lasagna slop, I guess. A few bites of SF apple crisp. S: Protein shake. Kathy

whew!!! did I cause a fit on the main board today or what?! certainly didn't mean to and if I had wanted to start something it would have been a whole lot better then that!!! laurie - Ms. Trouble maker who's email folder is filling up with gripes!!!

You rabble rouser, you! From the first complaint that got posted... I saw that it was gonna be a train wreck... Kathy

ya, but it was kind of fun to watch!!!!!

Yea, from under here... ... now only if my body would handle popcorn, I woulda been set.

Hey Laurie, Today Ive had so far: Pre B-3c coffee with splenda and skim milk(3/4c all together) B-omlet w/ egg beaters, spinach, bell pepper, onion, ham(turned out huge I could only eat half)oh yeah with ff sour cream and salsa L-shrimp fajitas (only one tortilla)(ate out) S-will be 1oz. almonds or other half of omlet D-crock pot chicken and veggies S-probably fruit of some sort as I see I have not had any today Candy 50 oz of water so far no exercise

B: protein drink - drank about 9/10 oz of it. I started feeling sick so I stopped. S: wheat toast with slice of 2% American cheese and dab of butter L: will be probably chicken salad if I can eat it with some sorta veggie - maybe carrots D: will be bfast! I'm making eggs, bacon, wheat biscuits and gravy. I'll have some eggs, a slice of bacon, probably 1/2 a biscuit and a little gravy - if I can tolerate it. Any other snacks today will be fruit. I got lots of fresh fruit the other day and it's so yummy. I had about 1/2 of a LARGE peach yesterday and it was sooooo delish! I have to be honest with y'all - I'm really getting depressed. I'd say I'm about at 60% right now. Last week at this time I was about 30%. I still have difficulty eating and I can't stand or walk for any length of time - any more than about 5 minutes and my back starts to hurt. They're thinking I have two separate problems, not just one. They think I may have a bulging disk in my back that is pinching a nerve and they think that I may have an ulceration or irritation in my intestines that run along the top of my abdomen. These are just guesses at this point and we're getting further testing (an MRI and endoscopy) to see for sure. This stuff is totally disrupting my life at this point. I'm so done with it.

Well it's good that you're getting food in. When I'm in pain I can't eat nothing. I sure hope they find out what's going on and move ahead with the plan to fix it for you!!!! I know that depression comes with frustrating illnesses. I was so depressed after my stroke, I told my husband to forget the stupid doctors who don't know nothing, just take me home, put me in bed, and wait for me to die!!! What's worse is I REALLY ment it!!! But things got better and my depression lifted as well. Hugs to you today!!!! laurie
